In this module you will be introduced to the SolidWorks editing application. You will get an overview of how to navigate the home screen and the options available along with an introduction to the settings you can use to personalize your interface.

This module outlines the types of relationships that can be created between lines and how to create these relationships. It also shows you how to set and change dimensions for lines circles and arcs. It identifies the coincident point, how to make lines concentric and how to trim lines.

In this module you will see a flange being created as an example of how to used centrelines, circular patterns, mirroring and linear patterns to build out a sketch ready for extrusion.

This module looks at creating a solid (3d model containing information about an object) showing all the edges, protrusions and holes the are part of the sketch - a process known as extrusion.

The module looks at working with curved surfaces using the Revolve and Revolve Cut tools to make these curves. It also looks a the use of a Thin feature to add dimension where there is an un-closed sketch.

The module looks at the Sweep function which makes a solid or cut along a path that is sketched along a plane.

This module looks at adding additional features, such as fillet or chamfer, to a solid allowing for the refinement of the design. It also looks at linear and circular patterns in more detail.
